70 cm, more detail when it arrives. I had a much plainer one of these with damage back in the late 1970's but had to sell it when a poor student.This is the first one I saw for sale since.

David,

Nice to find one with such a nicely carved hilt. Have you tried etching the blade? Some of these have spectacular pattern welded blades.
